For over 50 years, the spirit of freedom and exploration has inspired everrything we do…<\/p>\n

In 1967, three friends were living in Washington: Skip, an outdoor enthusiast; Murray, an engineer; and Jan, an accomplished seamstress.<\/p>\n

So, when Murray won a design award from the Alcoa Company for creating the first adjustable aluminum backpack frame, a bit of karma began to take flight. Murray asked his girlfriend, Jan, to create a backpack pattern for his new aluminum frame, and promised her that if it was a success he\u2019d name the company after her. It was, he did, and the JanSport\u00ae Brand came to life… see the full story @ www.jansport.co.uk\/pages\/about-us<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Also available in all colours: Fargo Study Desk and Chair, \u00a3410<\/p>\n

This superior quality high sleeper combination is the ultimate in work, rest and play. The Fargo Loft Bed with fold out futon chair bed and corner desk is a space saving dream and firm favourite for those looking for a little bit of everything all rolled into one! Ideal for a combination of lounging with a favourite comic on the comfy futon; or if homework is a must there’s a nifty corner desk too. The layout can be configured to suit with desk, futon chair and ladder going at either end for versatility, and there is always the option to add a smart storage bookcase or matching solid beech chair for added usefulness.<\/p>\n

Classic Beech High Sleeper Bed with Full Length Desk and Storage Bookcase, \u00a3700, also shown: Children\u2019s Chair, \u00a3140, Little Folks Furniture, littlefolksfurniture.co.uk<\/p>\n

Classic Beech High Sleeper Bed with Full Length Desk, \u00a3585, Little Folks Furniture, littlefolksfurniture.co.uk
\nThis sturdy and smart, modern high sleeper loft bed offers a bunk bed with large, full length desk underneath, and is designed to be fitted to a wall. The loft bed frame can be deconstructed into a low single bed, and is crafted from solid Beech hardwood. The desk that runs underneath the full length of the bed makes for the perfect place to study and craft, and storage bookcase and chest of drawer options are also available – ideal for stashing away toys, clothes or keepsakes.<\/p>\n

\u201cRecent events have meant we now truly appreciate the multi-purpose nature of our rooms. A children\u2019s bedroom is their sanctuary \u2013 a place to feel safe and secure as well as do their homework; increasingly a \u201c24\/7 hangout space\u201d. It\u2019s vital to maximise that space and create zones that enable them to do the things that they enjoy and are important.<\/p>\n

High sleepers are becoming a hugely popular choice in children\u2019s furniture design. These beds provide a flexible solution for room layouts, using a high bed frame to free up space underneath for lots of \u201cuseful furniture\u201d. Our range of high sleepers is one of the few in the market with matching free standing furniture meaning the layout can be re-arranged time and time again, giving it fresh appeal and the opportunity to carve out different areas for different purposes quickly.<\/p>\n

We all know how important it is to have a proper working space, which makes having a desk a great addition for study time. There are options with \u201cfull length\u201d integrated desks that still fit a chest of drawers, storage bookcases etc. underneath, or free-standing desks which can be moved to suit. Alongside this, create a chill-out area that\u2019s perfect for rest and relaxation with a folding futon – which can be made up into a bed for those habitual sleepovers!\u201d \u2013 Chris Lusty, Founder, Little Folks Furniture<\/p>\n

Andy Chu, Executive Chef at Mr Lee\u2019s Noodles, who developed the recipes alongside Damien comments: \u201cWe\u2019re really excited to be able to offer a new strand of product here at Mr Lee\u2019s. Stemmed from Damien\u2019s passion about healthy, but gourmet food, a breakfast option was a natural progression in the Mr Lee\u2019s product line. Damien was the ultimate cancer warrior, staving off the disease five times with the help of changing his way of life and diet, hence creating a healthy noodle pot. He was involved in the new product development and the future of Mr Lee\u2019s until the day he died and would\u2019ve been so proud to see the Porridges come into fruition. We\u2019ve got more exciting news in the pipeline with new launches this year, making sure we live up to Damien\u2019s belief that we all have the right to quick, honest and tasty food.\u201d<\/p>\n

BACK TO SCHOOL \u2013 HOW TO BE SAVVY PARENTS<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 76% of parents in the UK are worried about the rising costs of school essentials
\n\u2022 Up to 200% price difference in certain products depending on the month
\n\u2022 Save over \u00a380 on essential school equipment for children
\n\u2022 Waiting just a matter of months could save parents 13% on a tablet<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With school trips, lunches, uniforms, stationery and classroom equipment all on the shopping list ahead of September, new research has revealed 76% of UK parents are worried about the rising costs of sending their children back to the classroom*.<\/p>\n

Researching trends across popular back to school essentials over the last year, price comparison site, idealo.co.uk has found that depending on the month, parents could save hundreds of pounds collectively. idealo discovered that it\u2019s not always financially viable to buy everything just before term time and that being strategic could ensure a high percentage saving.<\/p>\n

The table below highlights the best month\u2019s consumers should consider shopping for popular back to school products, revealing the percentage difference and saving.
\nFor example, those looking to buy a tablet for their children should wait until November, as the prices last year dropped by up to 13% and products such as calculators and headphones are best purchasing after the term starts.<\/p>\n

.<\/p>\n

Looking closely at the average cost of these popular products, idealo\u2019s data predicts the trends for 2021, with the following product categories evidently being cheaper before and after the term starts.<\/p>\n

For more chances of saving money, the following four tips can also benefit shoppers:
\n1. Keep an eye out for shopping events such as Black Friday or Amazon Prime Day as you may find some special one-off deals on certain items.
\n2. If you\u2019re unsure about the price of a certain product and feel that it is too expensive, waiting until the next month could be pivotal in a new sale, offer clearance or website deal. It\u2019s always worth biding time if you\u2019re under financial strain.
\n3. Get into the habit of price comparing on every purchase, just by selecting a different website or store, you could save a lot of money.
\n4. Use a price history tool to check how much prices have changed on certain products around the year. This will give shoppers a good indication of when it will be cheapest.
\nidealo\u2019s Katy Phillips commented on the findings: “It\u2019s no secret that a school year can accumulate to a lot of money for parents, and in the current times of uncertainty it\u2019s essential to make any savings where possible.
\n\u201cBy price comparing and keeping active on sales and prices, mums and dads across the country can save money, whilst making sure their children get the best products possible.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2022 The Tesco 100-day guarantee promises quality and value across Back-to-School ranges with core items starting from as low as \u00a32.50
\n\u2022 Designed with a sustainable focus, many products are made with at least 50% recycled materials and produced using less water
\n\u2022 Range designed to provide extremely durable clothes, which keep colour for longer and features stain repellent technology
\n\u2022
\nEvery year, the busy Back to School period comes around in a flash with pupils returning to school in a few, short weeks. To help prepare students for another year of learning skills and making friends, Tesco have launched durable, great value uniforms, which will set kids up for their return to school without breaking the bank.
\nThe much-loved uniform staples from Tesco are returning for all ages, from primary through to secondary school pupils*. Popular boys\u2019 and girls\u2019 twin-pack shirts, in both long and short sleeves (from just \u00a33.00) come in a range of different fits (regular, slim, skinny, and plus) to make kids look and feel more confident.
\nThe range also features boys\u2019 and girls\u2019 trousers with adjustable waists, from just \u00a37.00 and \u00a36.00 respectively, and are available in regular, slim, skinny and plus fits, and a range of colours. Several styles also come with \u2018Grow With Me Hems\u2019; trousers specially designed with extra length in the hems to be let down over the school year, to grow alongside children. Alongside this, Teflon Eco Elite stain repellent technology will help release the toughest of stains.
\nTesco also offers a 100-day guarantee across all uniform items, including shoes, so that parents can be confident and have peace of mind that if their child wears out their uniform quicker than they\u2019d like, it can easily be exchanged or returned.
\nWith much of the range made with at least 50% recycled materials, colours that are made to last no matter how often uniform gets washed, easy iron features, reinforced seams and permanent pleats to help reduce ironing time, the range has sustainability and practicality at the forefront.<\/p>\n

Head of Buying for Kids & Baby at F&F, Jennie Burbage, comments: \u201cAt Tesco we\u2019ve done everything we can to help make going back to school as seamless as possible. We realise that price and quality, along with comfort and durability, are the most important factors for parents and children choosing new uniforms, which is why our range has been made to last. In addition to Teflon Elite stain repellent technology and easy iron features, with our 100-day guarantee, parents can have peace of mind that we\u2019ll replace any uniforms they are not happy with, free of charge.\u201d
\nThe range also features great quality PE kit essentials, starting from as little as \u00a32.00, including responsibly sourced cotton sweatshirts, joggers and t-shirts, quick-dry netball skirts and football shorts, as well as other sporting staples.
